Re: pipe performance problem

Thomas,

I think that's unwarranted. You needn't be so pessimistic. You've done good 
work in tracking down the source of an undesirable characteristic, but you 
need to follow through.

Traditionally, the thing to do would be to write a single post (perhaps 
under a new "Subject:" thread) in which you summarize the problem behavior, 
the diagnostic work you did and the solution you propose to alleviate the 
problem. In particular, you'll need to supply a patch script that will 
allow others to replicate your results and evaluate whether there are any 
potential problems with your solution that you're might be overlooking.

Bear in mind, too, that in the U.S. it's a holiday (an extended one at 
that) and many people over here are either in the kitchen, at the dinner 
table or maybe in front of a television set, and quite likely not near 
their computers.

Hang in there.

P.S. Being the cranky old curmudgeon I seem to be, I still think you should 
stick to conventional English capitalization. After all, it demands fewer 
capitals than German, right?
